The basis of the succes of Mainz 05 in the early games were the team's young talent. And it stood out André Schürrle and Lewis Holtby. They impressed their country since the beginning of league for his ability.


Holtby was on at the FIFA U-20 World Cup Egypt 2009 and scored 3 goals on that competition. In just 9 matches at German championiship he had 7 assists and 2 goals. 
His next step is the senior national team, which could come soon. “Players like (Andre) Schürrle and Holtby in Mainz have moved very close to the national team. It is great to see what is developing right now in Mainz,” German national team coach Joachim Löw told the Bild daily on 29 September 2010. 


He already had his first chance in the end of the last year,  on a friendy against Sweden (the same one of Götze game). Actually, Lewis is the Germany U-21 captain.
